    At this location, you can admire the Sphinx. It's a unique, fossilized dune formation visible from Swartvlei Beach and is one of the most beautiful coastal walks at low tide. Spend some time at the rock pools and observe the fascinating marine life swimming around. At this time of year, you're likely to spot dolphins and whales.
